I'm tired ... keep me awake.
7:04pm MDT. I sit on my bed with my laptop before me, typing to the unknown souls on DemocraticUnderground.com. My eyes half-lidded, my lips droop into an amorphous shape. I am fucking tired.

Please keep me awake. It's too early to go to bed.

5. To be awake and not ignorant is to wear chains and shoulder a cangue.
How can you be shown Zen,until you first empty your cup?

Perhaps your cup is not full,grasshopper.

17. Snark never appears where a kind mouth speaks...
unless you seek to flame the senses.

10. If I go to sleep in 35 minutes, I'm going to be up at 1am.
And very unhappy.

Nighty!

14. That would be a little inconvenient for me.
Yeah... 3am is too early... I'd prefer 8am at the earliest. Yup.

11.  Try this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ku7PLTtixdU

I was looking for "Shaft's Cab Ride" by Isaac Hayes and found this mash-up instead. :rofl:

Wait until 16 seconds in.

15. No references.
For no reason at all, they decided to use footage from the Lion King along with the song from Shaft. As far as the 16 seconds goes, I meant that's where the song suddenly picks up (to wake you up).

18. Dudes, I can't do this anymore. I am about to die.
Thanks for trying, though. Unfortunately the Pixie Dust was extra strength.

Later...
